Clinical Psychologist and Art Psychotherapist, currently working in Lisbon and online.<\/p>\n\n
She works with people from various backgrounds and ages, with the aim of providing a safe and trusting relationship, where the individual can feel listened to and supported, and can explore their experiences at their own pace, with a view to improving their mental, social, emotional and physical well-being.<\/p>\n\n
Having studied and worked in the UK, and lived among various cultures for many years, she has developed an inclusive and sensitive approach to aspects of human diversity. As a bilingual psychotherapist, she provides consultations in Portuguese and English. <\/p>\n\n
She doesn't see her work as solving problems, but instead focuses on facilitating the development of her clients through a joint creative process. She believes that each of us is the best expert on our own life and has the clues to guide us on our journey towards our potential. <\/p>\n\n
In her personal journey, she has learned about the power of the arts in the healing process and the contribution of psychotherapy to the development of her self-awareness and growth. The practice of yoga, meditation, ceramics and other art forms are also fundamental to her well-being and support her therapeutic work. She is also a music lover, traveler, sister and mother. <\/p>\n\n
